Part of me is hopeful this kind of change will modernize the healthcare system. Yet, part of me is worried of all the things that can (and will) go wrong. finance.yahoo.com/news/salesforc…

Being picky. Shouldn’t the abstract say what “kidney failure” is? Dialysis? Low GFR? And didn’t we decide we’re not saying kidney failure anymore? 🫣 Long-Term Benefits & Safety of Statins in Pts with kidney failure : JASN journals.lww.com/jasn/abstract/…

Lessons from the 1600’s. The first lesson was that coercing the locals to produce gold and food won’t work. The second is interesting, as humans still struggle to comprehend it.

This is now my major area of interest. Put simply, we need to rewrite medicine. The mouth is not just a cake hole! Good oral health is vital to body health, not as an add-on extra but as an upstream mechanistic determinant of body health. 21/23
